World Autism Day 2009 (EDM1174)

World Autism Day 2009

EDM number 1174 in 2008-09, proposed by Bob Spink on 24/03/2009.
Categorised under the topic of Mental health.

That this House notes that there are over half a million people in the United Kingdom with autism who, to varying degrees, struggle to make sense of the world; further notes that this can cause them considerable anxiety, particularly in understanding and relating to other people and taking part in everyday family, work and social life; welcomes World Autism Day on 2 April 2009 which can help to bring together people with autism, their parents and carers, educators, employers and potential employers, and the many people with autism who are undiagnosed; and expresses the hope that World Autism Day will increase awareness and understanding of the problems associated with autism and levels of help for those with autism.

This motion has been signed by a total of 86 MPs, 3 of these signatures have been withdrawn.
